The Miami Dolphins will be going into the 2024 season with expectations of competing for a championship. When you give your quarterback a massive contract coming off a season in which you went 11-6, you have certain expectations the following season.
The Dolphins offense proved over and over again in 2023 that they can score on anyone quick, fast, and in a hurry. That is due largely impart to the weapons they have surround Tua Tagovailoa with.
One of those weapons got some pretty big news on Saturday.
Miami Dolphins Fans React To Massive Contract News
Ahead of the 2024 season, the Miami Dolphins extended the contracts of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle.
Now, Tyreek Hill is taken care of. According to Scott Polacek of Bleacher Report:
Miami and Hill agreed to a restructured contract worth $90 million over the next three seasons, with $65 million guaranteed, according to Adam Schefter and Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.
The agreement gives Hill $106.5 million over four years, the most guaranteed money for a wide receiver in NFL history. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network further broke down Hill’s new deal:
Hill had teased the extension earlier in the day on Saturday, posting a cryptic message to his X account:
I’m here to stay 😈

Tyreek gets more money and the title of most fully guaranteed money for a WR in NFL history — without surpassing Justin Jefferson in total value or AAV
Hill gets more money, Dolphins keep their star happy without having to totally reset the market. No drama. Everyone wins https://t.co/ru0CvmSNfO

The Dolphins (for their willingness to engage) and @cheetah (for his positive approach to desiring a new deal) just showed a lot of teams how you do it. https://t.co/wpCN8Np3E0
